Show Low journalist accused of faking social media posts about missing teen, officials say
Jarrett Brooks, 17, went missing from his home in Joseph City in July 2023, according to the Navajo County Sheriff's Office.
The Navajo County Attorney's Office said Molly Ottman, 50, of Show Low, made several Reddit posts posing as Brooks' father, Brian. The posts made months after the teenager's disappearance implied the man had molested his son.
Ottman later contacted investigators to report the posts, the County Attorney's Office said. Police began investigating the allegations, executing search warrants at the man's residence and the offices of a private investigator he employed.
They ultimately concluded that Ottman had made the posts herself. She works as an editor at the Mountain Daily Star, an online publication that covers Navajo and Apache counties.
"A 16-year-old boy was missing, and all of law enforcement's energy and resources should have been able to remain focused strictly on the search for that young man," Navajo County Attorney Brad Carlyon said in a statement. "Diverting attention, resources and time to fabricated evidence creates unwarranted distractions during time-sensitive investigations."
Ottman was due in court June 2. She did not respond to The Arizona Republic's request for comment on May 29, but previously told State 48 News the allegations against her were "absolutely untrue." She told the outlet she would plead not guilty in the case.
Jarrett has been missing for nearly two years.
He was first reported as a runaway July 4, 2023, according to the County Attorney's Office. The teen reportedly had an argument with his parents over being grounded before leaving, the office said.
The County Attorney's Office said various law enforcement agencies have conducted "extensive searches" for Jarrett. The Sheriff's Office said in 2024 it had investigated hundreds of tips and leads regarding Jarrett's disappearance, but none offered credible information.
Jarrett was last seen dressed in a black t-shirt with "AMERICA" across the front, blue jeans, cowboy boots and a baseball hat. He was described by law enforcement as a white male with brown eyes and blond hair. He is about 6 feet tall and weighs approximately 140 pounds.
If you have any information regarding Jarrett's whereabouts, call the Navajo County Sheriff's Office at 928-524-4050.

Fatal Deer Lake plane crash leaves family mourning halfway across the world
A fatal plane crash in Deer Lake, Newfoundland and Labrador has left a family grieving on the other side of the world. Shock rippled through the western Newfoundland town of 5,000 people in late July after hearing reports of a small plane crashing near the region's airport. The aircraft was a Piper Navajo twin-engine plane. The pilot, a 54-year-old man, and the lone passenger, a 27-year-old man, were both pronounced dead at the scene. This week, the family identified the passenger to CBC News as Gautham Santosh, from Kerala, India. He was living in Canada to become a pilot. "He just wanted to fly. Ever since he was a child, he wanted to be a pilot," Gautham's sister, Ganga Santosh, told CBC News. Now, she says, her family is in shock and reeling. "Everybody's devastated because of such a thing, no one would dream of it happening," Ganga Santosh said. Always wanted to be a pilot Gautham Santosh is described as a gentleman and his brother-in-law Sonu Prathap said he was a reliable person. "He was someone you can count on once you get to know him," Prathap said. "It sounds cliche, but he was truly like that." Ganga Santosh said her brother was determined to chase his dream and become a pilot. As a child, she says, he was obsessed with planes. "My grandma, she used to say, whichever notebook you open, you'll find images of these airplanes. And he had ideas about all of them, all types of models. He knew the name, he knew how the design was, everything," she said. When it came time to pursue post-secondary education, Ganga Santosh said her brother was convinced to study mechanical engineering. She said their mother considered it the safer career option but he dropped out after his second year in the program. "He was like, 'No, this is not my passion. My passion is flying, like I'm meant for that,' and so at last my mom gave in," Ganga Santosh said. Gautham Santosh moved to Canada in 2019. He studied and worked at the Pacific Professional Flight Centre in British Columbia. Ganga Santosh said he recently started working with the owner of the Piper Navajo twin-engine plane in order to gain more flying hours. "I think it's been three to four weeks now since he's been working there with Kisik," Ganga Santosh said. Last contact On July 26, his family knew he was getting on a plane in Deer Lake. Ganga Santosh said her brother called their mom beforehand. "He had called my mom and said, 'I'm going to the airport, it's my off-day, but there's some work that I need to do, and after that I'm taking a rest,'" she said. Their mother is shaken by the last conversation she had with Gautham Santosh. "The last word he said was that he's taking a rest, which is still hurting my mom so much. She didn't think that it would end in such a kind of rest," Ganga Santosh said. Gautham Santosh had big plans for his future. In the short term, he was going to visit home in September and surprise his mom for Onam, an annual harvest and cultural festival in India. "He's like, 'I'll surprise mommy. I won't tell him I'm coming,'" Ganga Santosh said. "He planned all that, but unfortunately, as you can see, he could not keep up those plans." Repatriation Now, his family is hoping to bring home what they can of his remains. "It was a twin-engine flight, and it was supposed to fly for eight to 10 hours or something. So that much fuel and the crash happened right after take off caused a really huge explosion," she said. "We still do not know how much is left." The crash is currently under investigation by the Transportation Safety Board of Canada. Ganga Santosh said whatever is left of her brother is in the hands of the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in St. John's. She hopes that in the coming weeks, his remains will be repatriated. "We need him back, because in India, I'm sure you know, we have some last rites and things to be done," Ganga Santosh said. Her brother died doing what he loved, she said. "He just loved it. He used to be like, 'I flew this many hours. I flew 12 hours. I flew straight. It was amazing,'" Ganga Santosh said.

19 People Who Dated Someone Who Lied About Being Single Are Sharing Their Stressful Stories
Reddit user JJsolo538 recently asked, "People who dated someone who was cheating on their partner, how did that unfold?" Here are some shocking stories of betrayal, deceit, and utter chaos: 1."I didn't know he was in a relationship; he said she was his roommate. I was 22F and naive, and he was 31 and a liar. Then he had a life-threatening brain injury, and you should've seen the nurses' faces when they had to ask his mom, 'Which one is the legal partner because we've met his 'girlfriend' and his 'wife' today.' Turns out they were still together, and she thought I was a friend of his mom's. We had a screaming fight in the hallway. It was not my best moment, but I had to defend myself because I truly didn't know the truth; I believed what he told me. And I don't blame her for hating me. Then he offered me money to be a surrogate for them. They're all blocked now." —minderaser15 2."I didn't know they were cheating until I found her Facebook with a different last name through a mutual friend I had no idea we shared. Turns out the girl was married and even had kids. I don't want kids, and I even mentioned that to her, and she said she didn't want to have kids either, so it was a pretty big shock to find out. I found her husband's Facebook and texted him about it. He wanted proof, so I sent texts and videos I had with her. Turns out she was telling him she was going to hang out with her best friend when she was really coming to see me or go on dates with me, and her best friend knew and was covering for her. They got divorced, and she ended up blaming me for it." —PersonalDex101 3."I got a call from an unknown number that turned out to be his girlfriend. She was sobbing and telling me they had three kids together that he didn't take care of, and that he was a master manipulator who she suspected was cheating for a long time. I sent her everything I had and blocked his ass." —owlfacegrace 4."Coworker. She went from my 'office wife' to more over time. She said she wanted to keep it casual at the beginning and was seeing other people. We eventually became 'exclusive' after a year or so... We were on and off for about three years. She lived with her family for the first two years, so I didn't think anything of it when she'd only come over to my place and never invited me over. When she got her own place, she told me her roommate would get annoyed if she had a guy over. It eventually came out that she wasn't casually dating. She had a fiancé, and I was the side piece. Her roommate was her fiancé, and their place was a house they bought together. When I confronted her, I was weak and asked her to choose. She chose her fiancé. They got married a few months later, and I believe they have a kid together. We stopped talking shortly after I changed jobs." —new_for_confession 5."It was like a Lifetime movie. We were dating for four years. One day, while she was away, I opened Chrome, and it showed an email address with another person's name. I did a quick search, and it showed her. She was married. I confronted her, and the excuse was she was married for a green card, and they were both of that understanding, but that was also a lie." —VerbalRadiation 6."She wasn't sure who the father was. I didn't tell her that I had a vasectomy. She brought her daughter to visit me for nearly two years each week, just in case. Bought me lunch every time. Sent me pictures for years. He eventually left her because of some other nonsense in their relationship. She moved to a different city. He took a paternity test, and the child wasn't his, either. Neither of us was the father. To this day, I wonder if she ever remembers who else she was messing around with. I haven't heard from her in over a decade. I never asked. She never actually implied. I had no idea she was married until several weeks into what I believed was the best relationship I'd ever been in. I was all in until she finally broke down and confessed. Human beings are shit, I have finally concluded." —paumpaum 7."After a few dates, I found out he had a wife and infant twins — not because he told me, but because one of his friends tagged him in a picture but didn't tag her properly. I could see her name, but it wasn't linked like a tag. I guess the guy I was seeing went into all his wife's stuff and blocked me so I couldn't see anything she tagged him in or any of his stuff with her. Once I found out, I stepped back but didn't tell him I knew. I let him chase me a bit. He sent me some pretty damning texts. I had a friend look up the wife and get her mom's name, then sent all the screenshots of texts, even a photo of us at dinner, to his mom and her mom. Then I blocked him from everything. Her mom thanked me, but his mom blocked me." "A week later, I got a message request from her; she was using her birth name. She said she was confused about how she felt about me, but she wanted to thank me for letting her know when I did. Apparently, her parents were just about to close on a house they were gifting to them, which would've made the divorce more difficult. I didn't hear from her after that, but I checked her page a few times, and it looked like she followed through with the divorce and moved in with her parents. She looked much happier/more relaxed than she did in pictures with him. I got a few texts from his friends telling me I ruined his life, that he was suicidal, and if he died, it would be my fault. I only sent the hotline number and blocked them. It stopped pretty quickly. I still feel guilty and that I should've known better, even though it's been a few years, but there's only so much vetting I can do." —duchess_of_fire 8."I met a girl at work. We started dating and got to the point where we were spending nights together, taking trips together, etc. One day, she left my apartment, and 10 minutes later, there was a knock on my door. This guy was standing there and asked me if I knew her. I was like, 'Yeah, why?' He goes, 'She's my wife.' The dude was actually REALLY nice. He just wanted to know what was going on and had figured out where I lived through a bit of detective work, and got confirmation when she left my place that day. I was shocked and appalled. He was in the military. They'd gotten married at 18, and she regretted settling so young and used me to live a little. After we confronted her, she went to Burning Man with her sister." "Afterward, she came to my place unannounced and asked me to keep the affair going. I asked her how many people she'd cheated on her husband with at Burning Man. She told me seven. I told her it was over and she needed to stop fucking around with her husband because he seemed like a genuinely good guy. It's been a looong time, but last I saw, they were still married and had at least one child." —SylvesterCross 9."I met a guy who was in town for work while I was out at a bar getting a nightcap. We exchanged numbers and ended up hitting it off. He's a bit older than me, but I have always been into older guys, so it's whatever. I discovered he had a whole family back home a few months later. It's the whole regular DL lie — the marriage ended a long time ago in every sense except the legal one, they're waiting until the kids turn 18 to get divorced, he wants to wait until the divorce is over to come out to spare his wife's feelings. I was 18 and believed we were in love, and if I just waited, we would live happily ever after." "Of course, that didn't happen. About a year into our relationship, I saw a vow renewal announcement in the newspaper. We split up, and now 20 years have passed since then. I'm now 38, and he is still married to his wife. Every now and then, I see him on Grindr looking for another young boy to turn into his DL side piece." —just-another-gringo 10."We dated for eight months before I realized he was married for 20 years, not divorced. I broke up with him immediately. Two weeks later, he showed up on my porch in tears after having left his wife. I assumed a man who would cheat with me (without telling me) couldn't be trusted not to cheat on me, so after a chat, because I'm not a total asshole, I turned him away. They actually got divorced. Later, I found out he'd turned into a Madison Cawthorn supporter, and I have zero doubt I dodged a bomb, not a bullet, with that guy." —Ok_Frosting1520 11."We had a child, got married, spent eight toxic years together with a horrible end. Now, 13 years later, we are good friends who hook up occasionally." —bageltheperson 12."She was a work colleague, almost 20 years younger. We got close through working on a couple of projects together and commiserating over drinks about the shitshow our job was basically every week. I went into it knowing she had a boyfriend, but I was single and on the wrong side of 40, so it was basically too good to pass up. We got very close over time, and though she was a sweetheart, she gaslit the hell out of that poor guy over his valid concerns and took advantage of his naivety. I'd pick her up for work daily, and a couple of times, he'd be there too, so I'd give him a ride out too. It ended when she got pregnant, and the slight possibility that it could have been mine (it wasn't) seemed to sober her up, and she distanced herself. They're still going strong." —complex_passions 13."She told me they broke up. We dated for eight or nine months. In hindsight, there were many red flags. She always showered when she came over or left, changed clothes, never wanted to go out near her house, was always on edge when in public, etc. I was young and lovestruck. She never broke up with her long-term boyfriend before me; he was just working four to six months doing offshore welding or something like that. Dude came back, and I caught on. I blew up the whole thing and brought him in on it. I told him and showed him what she was saying to me. He didn't believe a damn thing I said and threatened to kill me if I didn't back off. She hit me up five months later when he was gone again. They're probably still in that unhealthy shit." —Decapitated_gamer 14."I met him shortly after my 19th birthday. We spent a lot of time together going to bars and drinking. We'd text and flirt. We were seeing one another for a few months. I'd spent time with his friend group. I had no idea he was with someone else. One night, while he was sleeping over after a night of bar hopping, his phone kept ringing. I picked it up, and a girl answered. I asked who it was. She said, 'This is his pregnant fiancée. Who are you?' I called his friends and told them to get him the fuck out of my apartment. They ended up getting married and having a few more kids." —Crackbabychairman 15."She claimed to be in an open relationship that she had apparently opened on her end without being transparent about that with her partner. Not surprisingly, after she turned out to be lying about that, she also lied about other things." —Free-Marionberry-916 16."She told me she had left her husband and was finalizing the divorce. She actually just left him and ghosted him. Went back to him after we didn't work out." —JapanEngineer 17."My patience, hope, and optimism that he would eventually choose me were rewarded with multiple heartbreaks and lasting trauma. 🥲 I'm not sad about how it ultimately worked out, though. He's a better person now, and we're still friends, though we're not close. We're more like acquaintances with history. He had his own trauma, which doesn't excuse what he did, but his girlfriend had cheated on him first. She had done the same thing to him as he did to me. I think they're still friends, too. Some people might think it's toxic to all still be in touch, but growth is about grace and genuine friendship entails forgiveness, which is not the same as tolerance or permission to continue." —SubmergingOriginal 18."It was during COVID. She told me she planned on leaving him once things had settled down and we weren't in a pandemic, since she didn't want to kick him out with nowhere to go. After about a year, things had mostly returned to normal, but it became clear she had no intention of leaving him, so I broke off the relationship and said we should remain friends. After a month or two, it became clear she was only really interested in the sex after she kept trying to initiate it with me, so I broke things off completely with her. If I'm being honest, I think she just enjoyed the idea of cheating. She really liked to have sex with me while her partner was downstairs, unaware. I'm thankful it ended like it did rather than her leaving him to be with me properly." —Amigmy "As a guy, it happened to me once. Her boyfriend came up to us at a restaurant. It was a second or third casual date. He was ready to pick a fight with me, but once I stood up, he stopped a bit, then I told him I had zero idea she had a boyfriend. Turned to her, asked her if she did, in fact, have a boyfriend. She hesitated and tried to wordsmith an answer. I just said, 'I'm out. Y'all clearly have stuff to settle.' I made no more fuss, left some cash, and rolled. Additionally, most guys get into trouble getting violent with the other guy because they want to blame him. We do ourselves an injustice by this or any violence. Once you realize you're with a cheater, just let them leave.
